Wow, this work thing is killing me! No time for anything! I deeply apologize for my slacking in the blogging world. Like I said last time (and probably the time before that...) I will try to find more time to update. The good news though - I haven't done that much to blog about so I'm not too far behind. The job is going well... the people are very cool- in fact the holiday party was just this past Sat night. We showed up late but didn't end up leaving until around 1:30. It was a good time and the house was amazing! Unfortunately, word got out that Ironman 2004 is in scope and I think I'll be in big trouble from here on out. Actually, I'm sure it will be fun as some of the employees at TREK actually organize big rides and stuff all the time. Stay tuned for more info on the "Big Ride." Should be interesting to say the least.
As for workouts... what is working out? Am I still supposed to be doing that? Just kidding... I've gotten in enough cycling classes and even a few swims and body pumps to keep me going. Yesterday I accompanied two others on a 5 mile run. The weather was pretty mild so that was nice, but the pace was a little fast for the diet Mt. Dew I had consumed right before leaving. Actually, I held up nicely (better than I thought I was going too) with the only problem being soreness in my knees from the cold. We actually pushed a pretty hilly route. After that I hit body pump and cashed myself of any energy I had left, leaving work.
Today I subbed for the 5:45pm cycling class. I was somewhat disappointed to find only about 10 participants, as the class is usually full. I think that is from Jen telling everyone that she wasn't going to be there and that at the time she didn't know who was going to be teaching. It's not nearly as motivating with such few people. Especially after getting used to my awesome Friday am crowd.
With that, I end with plans for tomorrow. Early yoga, then work then nothing. My legs are pretty dead as of right now so tomorrow might be a day off. I have my running gear just in case, but I believe it's supposed to be cold again and I'm sticking with the fact that I'm a wuss.
Alright, I guess that's enough for me for about the next month. Stay tuned for February's blog. Ok, I'll try harder. Hope everyone is well and training is fun. Late.
